Model Number Identification

The model number indicates specific features:

  • FF: Series designation
  • Capacity (e.g., 60, 70, 85, 100, 115): Represents thousands of BTU/HR input (e.g., 60 = 60,000 [17.58 kW])
  • Width (e.g., 17, 21, 24): Furnace width in inches
  • Airflow (e.g., 3, 5): Airflow capacity (3 = 3 Ton, 5 = 5 Ton)
  • Motor (e.g., L): L = ECM (Electronically Commutated Motor)
  • Speed (e.g., M): M = Modulating
  • Efficiency (e.g., 98): 98 = 98% AFUE
  • Orientation (e.g., U): U = Upflow

Note: A service clearance of at least 24" [610 mm] is recommended in front of all furnaces. Supply and return are depicted as upflow configuration. Flange configuration may vary depending on installation orientation.

Diagram Description (Page 3): The diagram illustrates the internal components of the furnace, including the primary and secondary heat exchanger, modulating burners, pressure switches, control board, ECM motor, draft inducer, gas valve and manifold, and blocked drain sensor. It also shows the location of the remote sensor.

Diagram Description (Page 6): The diagrams show the external dimensions and connection points for the furnace from front, top, bottom, and side views. Key connection points include optional combustion air inlet, optional vent outlet, return air, optional condensate drain (upflow/downflow), gas connection, and electrical connections. Tables detail minimum clearances to combustibles and flange dimensions for various models.
